They work hard for their money!!

Athletes work hard to get their money and to get where they are now, they work just as hard as we do. They have to go to school in order to reach the top. You think they get paid too much because you get paid too little, well maybe you should work a little harder and you can maybe reach the money you want....

Athletes don't get overpaid!!!

Some athletes make millions of dollars per year. That may seem unfair to average people but think about all of the people in the the world that they entertain. Also, they need the money to help their family out. Plus most super rich athletes donate a lot of the money the get.

No talking needed.

If athletes need that much money (1.5 million), then teachers need about 5 times more! Its not fair that the REALLY important people in life don't get paid more than $1,000 a year! Athletes DO NOT need that much , so do not worry. Someone will fix this problem of money.

They don't generate that much money to give that much money.

I do believe athletes should be paid a lot based on their talent. However, the amount that baseball players make is unbelievable. 30 million dollars a year is too much to pay a player for any sport regardless of their talent and who is willing to pay that much. There should be a hard cap across all sports to prevent that huge amount of money.

Athletes get paid too much.

Some athletes get paid millions of dollars a year for simply playing a game. A lot of other jobs are more difficult, but they get paid significantly less. Society should not give so much attention to people who do something that is essentially unnecessary. Teachers, doctors, and police should get more money, not athletes.

If someone gave me 14 million for my work, I'd take it

There are 2 problems with this question: (1) Not every (or even most) professional athlete makes the money that people complain about. And (2) Athletes' working careers are significantly short compared to, say, my career or my father's career. Therefore, someone should be expected to be paid more for their shorter working time. In addition, entertainment can be a perfect example of elastic demand. Owners can get away with offering large salaries because the people they are entertaining are willing to pay a lot to see pro athletes compete

They get triple taxes

If they have a child they need to by clotes and food and taxes but it can end in 1 sec by breaking a leg or badly hurtig them self. There money is not coming from the people or government and that is why we think they get to much money
